If the impeller is cracked or damaged it must be
replaced.
2 If the pump shaft can be turned by hand, the flange

Seawater System, Cleaning and
Inhibiting
The raw water system must be flushed with fresh
water, to prevent deposits and salt crystals from
building up inside it. It must also be conserved when
the boat is laid up for winter/out of season storage so
that it is protected from internal corrosion.
